Description :

DNA or RNA damage is due to environmentalfactors and normal metabolic processes inside the cell, that thenhinder the ability of the cell to carry out its functions. There arefour main types of DNA due to endogenous cellular processes and theyare oxidation, alkylation, hydrolysis and mismatch of the bases. Duringthe oxidation of bases, highly reactive chemical entities collectivelyknown as RONS, occurs. RONS stands for reactive oxygen and nitrogenspecies and includes nitric oxide, superoxide, hydroxyl radical,hydrogen peroxide and peroxynitrite. Numerous studies have shown thatRONS causes a variety of issues including DNA damage (1).

8-hydroxyguanine,8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanonsine and 8-hydroxyguanosine are all RNA and DNAmarkers of oxidative damage. 8-hydroxy-2’-guanosine is produced byreactive oxygen and nitrogen species including hydroxyl radical andperoxynitrite. Specifically its high biological relevance is due to itsability to induce G to T transversions, which is one of the mostfrequent somatic mutations (2). 8-hydroxy-guanine has been the mostfrequently studied type of DNA base damage, with studies in diabetes,and cancer. Base modifications of this type arise from radical-inducedhydroxylation and cleavage reactions of the purine ring (3, 4). Andfinally, 8-hydroxy-guanosine, like 8-hydroxy-2’-guanosine, induces amutagenic transversion of G to T in DNA. Its role has specifically beentested in the development of diabetes, hypertension and strokes (5-7).
